55. 'Weekend at ...Some might argue that the first "Weekend at Bernie's" isn't so great either, but others consider it a cult classic. As far as believable plot lines go, putting a corpse on strings in order to host a party is one thing, but using voodoo to re-animate it is quite another. C'mon Hollywood. Who do you think you're dealing with here? —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Artimm)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

54. 'Fletch Live..."Fletch Lives?" Unfortunately, this film was a franchise killer. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

53. 'The Sting I...Is it really a sequel if the main characters from the original are played by different actors? It doesn't matter. This film is awful. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: NBC)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

52. 'Dumb and Du...This isn't a sequel, it's a dumbness origin story. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: New Line)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

51. 'Teen Wolf T...Et tu, Bateman? Wolfin' out was so 1985. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Atlantic Entertainment Company)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

50. 'Miss Congen..."Armed and Terrible" would have been a more suitable subtitle for Sandra Bullock's return to the screen as Gracie Hart. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Warner Brothers)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

49. 'Short Circu...A toy-building robot exploring New York City? What is this - the future!? No, it's the late '80s. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: David Foster Productions)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

48. 'Son of the ...Just because the names Jim Carrey and Jamie Kennedy sort of sound alike (in that they contain letters), it doesn't mean you can substitute one for the other. The mask should have never been worn again. This was a ssssssmokin' pile of garbage. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: New Line Cinema)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

47. 'Legally Blo...These colors do run, and so should you. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: MGM)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

46. 'A Christmas...In the original "Christmas Story," all Ralphie wants for Christmas is a Red Ryder BB Gun. And all fans want is for this beloved holiday story to be left alone. Ralphie got what he wanted. We got a lump of coal. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Warner Bros.)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

45. 'American We..."American Pie" is one of the quintessential coming-of-age films of the '90s. Unfortunately, this is one franchise that didn't age gracefully. Someone should have said "I don't" to this blushing bride. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

44. 'Battle for ...Everyone loves a good Halloween mask, but the terrible low-budget costuming in this fifth "Apes" entry is enough to make Charleton Heston curse at the Statue of Liberty. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Fox)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

43. 'Van Wilder ...The quality of the first "Van Wilder" has long been defended (by frat boys, mostly), but this spin-off sequel featuring Van's sidekick Taj was like a keg-stand gone wrong. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: MGM)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

42. 'Speed 2: Cr...That's not Keanu! And while that's usually a good thing, this is one Titanic sequel stinker that could have benefited from an iceberg. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: 20th Century Fox)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

41. 'Leprechaun:...Who knew that the Leprechaun had ever been "2 tha Hood" to begin with? —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Lions Gate)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

40. 'Harold & Ku...They went from searching for mini-burgers in "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle" to dodging the authorities who believe they're terrorists. And they were right — these two totally made a bomb. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: New Line Cinema)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

39. 'Blues Broth...As a general rule, "Saturday Night Live" spin-off movies are a bad idea. "Blues Brothers" was an exception, but this 1998 sequel reinforced the rule. John Goodman is no John Belushi. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

38. 'Look Who's ...Yes, "Look Who's Talking Now" (aka, the one with the dogs) was the proverbial nail in this series' coffin, but "Look Who's Talking Too" (aka, the one with Roseanne's voice) was similarly unecessary. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Big Mouth Production)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

36. 'Return to t...Fourteen-year-old Milla Jovovich starred in this shipwreck, which grossed $8 million less than it cost to make. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

32. 'Deuce Bigal...Giving Rob Schneider one movie is bad enough (see: "Surf Ninjas" and "The Animal"), but giving him a sequel to an actually stomachable film is unforgivable. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

31. 'Highlander ...Isn't that the guy from the evil painting in "Ghostbusters II"? Oh, it's not? Then this film has no reason for existing. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Lamb Bear Entertainment)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

30. 'Terminator ...Christian Bale's recorded hissy fit on the set of "Terminator" had more spark and better dialogue than this drowsy installment.

27. 'Bridget Jon...This movie sequel is based on the book sequel to "Bridget Jones's Diary."

23. 'Spider-Man ...An emo Peter Parker dancing to jazz music spelled death for an otherwise solid film franchise. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

22. 'Alvin and t...This movie was so bad, even the cast (well, David Cross, at least) hated it. With any luck, this franchise will stay on a deserted island for good. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: 20th Century Fox)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

21. 'Caddyshack ...It's not alright. What happened here? Jackie Mason, Dan Ayckroyd, Chevy Chase, Chynna Philips and Randy Quaid. This should have been gold. Bill Murray and Rodney Dangerfield must have taken the laughs with them. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Warner Brothers)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

20. 'Bill & Ted'...If only someone would have sent robotic versions of Ted "Theodore" Logan and Bill S. Preston Esq. back in time to stop this legacy-killer. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Orion Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

19. 'Be Cool'Travolta makes his second appearance on the list in this absolutely torturous "Get Shorty" sequel. For a film starring so many comedic actors, it was nearly laughless. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: MGM)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

18. 'Analyze Tha...Like Robert De Niro, audiences couldn't fake a smile during this scene... or the rest of the movie. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Warner Brothers)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

16. 'X-Men' Orig...Gratuitous explosions? Check. Cheesy dialogue? Check. Skewed continuity? Check. A slaughtering of the source material? Check. Thanks for nothing, Marvel. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: 20th Century Fox)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

15. 'Back to the...Few sequels are as universally regarded as inferior to their predecessors as the third "Back to the Future." This is one mild, mild West film you should pass on. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

14. 'Staying Ali...Nice headband, Jimmy Snuka. Travolta trades in his bell bottoms for mediocrity. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

13. 'Indiana Jon...Harrison Ford is no longer a young man, and it was painfully obvious in this convoluted "Jones" sequel. The alien storyline and addition of Shia LaBeouf to the cast was terrible icing on this inedible cake. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

12. 'Karate Kid,...It's the worst around. Watch, it's really gonna bring you down. After "Karate Kid, Part II," it was time to wax off. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

11. 'Book of Sha...This sequel to the wildly successful low-budget horror film only scared audiences out of $10 per person.—XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Artisan Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

10. 'The Matrix ..."The Matrix" was an innovative and revolutionary step in cinema special effects. The two sequels, including "Reloaded," were confusing, self-indulgent messes. Someone should have taken the blue pill. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Warner Brothers)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

9. 'Jaws: The Re...This time it jumps the shark. Why? Because Michael Caines' character is named Hoagie. A delicious disaster. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

8. 'Halloween II...The Michael Myers storyline is completely abandoned in favor of fragments of sacrificial stones stolen from Stonehenge. True story. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

7. 'The Exorcist...Wow. The title just rolls off your tongue. The power of awful compelled many people to walk out on this absurd sequel, which was once called one of the worst films ever made. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Hoya Productions)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

6. 'Rocky V'Yo, Adrian, we killed it! The franchise, that is. For a movie that heavily featured Tommy Gunn, this is one sequel that had absolutely no bang. At least it didn't have a robot. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: MGM)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

5. 'Transformers...Michael Bay ruins things. And that does not exclude the things we loved as children. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

4. 'The Godfathe...Unless your name is Ron Howard, casting your daughter in one of the greatest film franchises of all time is a mistake of monumental proportions. Francis Ford Coppola learned this the hard way. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount Pictures)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

3. 'Sex and the ..."Sex and the City" did the nearly impossible when it turned a wildly successful television show into wildly successful (and good) movie in 2008. Two years later, Carrie & Co. did a world of damage to the series' legacy with this horrendous film set in Abu Dhabi.—XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: New Line)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

2. 'Batman & Rob...Clooney's rubber nipples are the most memorable part of this franchise-ender. A campy toy commercial, this movie was so bad that Warner Bros. cancelled a fifth "Batman" installment and shelved the character for seven years. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Warner Brothers)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

1. 'Star Wars: E..."Star Wars" is one of the most successful and popular film franchises on the face of the planet, but it only took one babbling alien named Jar-Jar Binks to bring it to its knees. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: 20th Century Fox)The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
